author atheist quote
Ashutosh There is no reasonable proof or arguement for the existence of god. Even if there is a reasonable proof, manking has no moral obligation to worship him.
-Nihilism

Sean R Religion is the fetid decay of the mind, the delusion of those too lazy or aloof to care about evidence or truth, it is a mind virus that seeks to keep its host blind to the inoculation of reason that would surely kill it.
6
Moriarty All scientific theories will be superseded. That's what makes them so much more dependable than religious dogma.
6
Samuel Clemens (Mark Twain) A man is accepted into a church for what he believes and he is turned out for what he knows.
6
Unknown If you make a claim without evidence, it will be dismissed without evidence.
6
Baron von Knifty There’s no “Returns” window in the church. You can’t get your contribution back when your prayers aren’t answered. They’ll simply tell you your prayers weren’t answered because you didn’t pray hard enough. And people keep going back!
6
John Kaminski "A miracle is merely an expression of ignorance when you dont know the true facts."
6
Baron von Knifty Isn’t it ironic that in the continuing Atheist/Religious war the only side to have tortured and killed is the religious side.
6
Nietzsche Here the ways of men part: if you wish to strive for peace of soul and pleasure, then believe; if you wish to be a devotee of truth, then inquire.
6
Friedrich Nietzsche Friedrich Nietzsche Now that we seek to record all our origin, we have also proven that God is not. Who will now tell us so thet we eill listen.When we have broken the last of the laws of nature when we shouted "freedom,liberty" and held nothing against the el

Gregarious Gregarious Hey Guys: Try to use proper grammar in your comments. It's embarrassing for Atheists to be seen as unlearned. They'll use it against us. We know that most religionists are uneducated and ignorant about reality. Let's not get into the swamp with them. We are better than that!
One other critique: Try not to personalize your comments but think at a macro level that represents all Atheists. No one really cares about what you think personally. It's "WE" not "I". You're speaking philosophically, attacking religion, on behalf of the entire Atheist community. Thanks.

Christopher Hitchens Christopher Hitchens We do not need a person, official, or an organization – especially not a bogus clerical one that claims to “Talk to God” on our behalf – to tell us how to think, what to believe, and how to live our life. To paraphrase the song, ‘Sunshine’ by ‘Jonathan Edwards’: ‘They can’t even run their own lives, I’ll be damned if they’ll run mine’. Sane people choose to NOT live in a ‘celestial North Korea’ where an Orwellian “Big Brother” monitors our every action – even our very thoughts – 24/7!
6
Jonathan Rot Jonathan Rot I am an atheist. That does NOT mean that I am immoral; a criminal; cruel; or stupid. It means that I don't believe in God, or any other god. That's all.
6
Acid Krtiana Acid Krtiana You say that I have no morals? At least I don't need an outdated book, an imaginary god, and the threat of reward or punishment to be good.
6
Acid Krtiana Acid Krtiana Why do gays disgust you when you do nothing about pedophile priests?

Gregarious Gregarious Where there are facts and evidence, no one speaks of 'faith'. We do not speak of faith that 2 + 2 = 4, or that the earth is “round” and revolves around the sun, or that evolution is real, or that gravity exists. These are indisputable facts. We only speak of faith when we wish to substitute emotions, hope, feelings, opinions, convictions, fanaticism, dogma, and beliefs for facts, proofs, evidence, and reality.
… Bertrand Russell.
6
Gregarious Gregarious I promise you, it doesn’t matter what you believe, how strongly you live your beliefs, or how true your beliefs are, somebody else, somewhere, thinks you are wrong and delusional; somebody else, somewhere, thinks your faith and beliefs are senseless, absurd, illogical and irrational. In fact, there are billions of others who do.
… Dan Pearce.
6
Gregarious Gregarious The importance of doubt is crucial because if you’re ‘certain’ that you’re right and other people are wrong, you’re not going to be able to hear and receive evidence that contradicts you – because of the power of “confirmation bias”. This is the tendency to search for, interpret, favor, and recall information in a way that confirms one's pre-existing and established beliefs or hypotheses. We are designed to protect, defend and “justify” those ideas that we have enshrined into our worldview. That’s why it’s so important to talk about these ideas with kindness and compassion and to understand that even when people deeply disagree with each other, generally it’s not coming from a place of ill will,
… Richard Feynman.
6
Gregarious Gregarious Faith is the purposeful suspension of critical thinking and reasoning. It is nothing to be proud of, admired, respected, or venerated … and it certainly is not above criticism, critique, or reproach.
6
Gregarious Gregarious We absolutely must leave room for doubt – or there is no learning and no progress. And a question requires doubt. People search for certainty – but there is no certainty. People are terrified; how can you live and not know? It’s not odd at all. You only think you know, as a matter of fact. And most of your actions are based on incomplete knowledge. And you really don’t know what it is all about, or what the purpose of the world is, or a lot of other things. It is possible to live and not know; we are constantly looking for answers. It is better to live and not know than to live having only an illusion of knowledge.
… Richard Feynman.
6
Gregarious Gregarious As difficult as this may be for you to comprehend and accept … Since you have no proof nor evidence to support or validate your own religious beliefs and convictions, ‘You could be wrong about the authenticity, veracity, accuracy or truth, of your own Faith’! Really think about it!
6
Gregarious Gregarious “Faith” is ‘not a reason’ for believing that something is true. Uttering, “I believe because I have faith” only changes the question from, “Why do you believe?” to “Why do you have faith?” The only difference is that you removed ‘evidence, proof, facts, and scientific validation’ from the list of possible answers.
6
Gregarious Gregarious The English word faith is thought to date back to 1200-1250, from the Middle English feith. Faith can best be described as a strong belief in God and the doctrines and teachings of religion – based on spiritual, mystical, magical, paranormal and supernatural convictions, rather than on any scientific proof or evidence.

Gwendolyn Gwynn Gwendolyn Gwynn An impoverished, foreign occupied, unlearned, superstitious people whose only means of (mis)communication was by word of mouth, delivered the message of Jesus. Which may well have begun as someones failed attempt to pass on a joke among ancient Sephardic Jews.

Gwendolyn Gwynn Gwendolyn Gwynn Were you raised by rational atheists, you would know there is no need to numb your mind for a life of despair and pain as you dream of promised, unseen rewards. Science has given us a new world that is simply too amazing, and too beautiful, to continue to ignore.
6
Gwendolyn Gwynn Gwendolyn Gwynn Come now, let us reason together say the wise; though your questions be complex, they shall be reasons for study; though the answers may be unknown today, they shall be known in time.
6
Gwendolyn Gwynn Gwendolyn Gwynn Claiming darkness is light,drinking blood, human sacrifice, cannibalism, mutilation of children, animal sacrifice, ritual torture... These are the people who wish to save us all from the sins of eating well, or admiring someone we find attractive.
6
Gwendolyn Gwynn Gwendolyn Gwynn Know that we live in a natural world and that mother nature herself is our creator. Accept with certainty the falsifiability of these things, as with many others which you will find you have been beguiled.
6
Gwendolyn Gwynn Gwendolyn Gwynn Faith holds the mind prisoner behind bars which are unseen, yet stronger than steel.

 Question: Why do we need places in which to worship and pray to our lord when our lord is all around us?

Answers:

1) Places of worship are there to bring like minded people together en mass in order to enforce their tribal belief. Think brainwashing.

2) They are collection points for tithes and offertory.
